It was horrible. The Eagles were the only good band around, Olympia was the only beer available, people were getting severe burns trying to eat from fondue pots with their bare hands, and the weed was so bad we had to chain smoke 25 cent a pack cigarettes just to get a buzz.

We finally cracked down on open pot smoking and got girls to put a bra on instead of wearing those unsightly halter tops. Plus we got the price of gas to where those losers can't just drive anywhere to listen to their degenerate music. Did the same with college tuition - keeps the riff raff out.

They also learned to be really brittle and defensive, especially when someone points out that braless boobs in public look trashy and massive bushes of pubic hair are revolting. :p

Don't forget the cocaine, although that was a tad later in the decade. It was all a horrible nightmare, it really was.
